...last Panther movie, The Pink Panther Strikes Again (which I, on the other hand, detested), Edwards beat to death everything he had nearly beaten to death the year before in Return of the Pink Panther (which I, on the other hand, loved), all of which had been virtually beaten to death already...

...STRANGE, but the Pink Panther is a very controversial animal. Sample a random number of reasonably intelligent people on what they think of these stupid Blake Edwards movies and you'll get replies ranging from, "I sleep through them" to "What wonderful pictures! Real fun and unpertentious, you know?" Although more boneheaded "auteurist" cinema scholars--Black Edwards fans all--could probably give you a shot-by-shot analysis of this unsubtle director's techniques, most critics will find it hard to be objective about Revenge of the Pink Panther. So much depends on one's mood, the setting, the company...

...Have a modest meal--some medium-priced seafood, perhaps (lobster is okay if you can afford it)--and a carafe of Chablis. Don't overdo it: you should emerge a wee bit sloshed and pleasurably filled. Skip dessert (that's the movie). Then go see Revenge of the Pink Panther. Make sure the movie theater is filled (there's nothing more depressing than watching a Panther movie in an empty theater). What you do afterwards is your own business, but you'll probably feel good and giggly and "mellow," which ain't too bad a way to spend a humid...
